    Big Thief have done it again. Despite the 2024 departure of their bassist of nine years, Max Oleartchik, the Brooklyn-built indie band’s sixth album sounds like another instant classic.

    Los Angeles and Double Infinity evoke the stream of consciousness brilliance of R.E.M.'s E-Bow The Letter, while Happy With You finds blissed-out rapture in repetition, All Night All Day is the lusty country song of the year and No Fear achieved Zen enlightenment in dub. [Sep 2025, p.103]

    ‘Double Infinity’ is a gloriously satisfying record on which it feels like everything is in its right place; an album that on some songs features up to twelve players, but feels consistently intimate and laid-back.

    Even if subdued, light folk lullabies channel old-school Big Thief in this journey to homecoming and cosy familiarity.

    he finished product is just nine songs, but the band covers a ton of ground, both in terms of what it comes up with musically as well as the distance Lenker traverses in her writing.

    Possibly, other songs and a different order might have made Double Infinity more cohesive, or logical. But then this would have removed its strange, slightly alien aura of zero gravity geometry.

    For an album with such a grandiose title, Big Thief’s Double Infinity is bafflingly mediocre — especially since it arrives on the back of a string of good-to-great albums.
